Answers
You can either use the following discussion or develop similar one taking ideas from it:
Student A: Hey where have you been? I have been looking for you for the last half an hour!
Student B: I was at the accounts office, depositing my monthly school fee. Why are you looking so excited?
Student A: You too will be when you hear the news! Actually the class-teacher just told me the school is planning a trip for us!
Student B: Wow! That’s wonderful!
Student A: The madam has asked me to discuss it with you which place will be the most suitable to go to?
Student B: I think this time we should go to a place where we can get lots of information. I think ISRO, Satish Dhawan Centre at Sri Harikota will be the most suitable destination.
Student A: Wow! What a find! Everyone would love to see it!
Student B: Undoubtedly, the school wanted to take us to NASA last year; the trip could not materialize because not enough students opted for it. ISRO has really become very famous all over the world after successful launch of Mars Mission.
Student A: I agree with you! Since we are a Science section, the Principal will also have no objection to our choice.
Student B: Besides, the expenses involved won’t be as high as the NASA trip. Besides, it won’t be as time consuming. The trip will also fill us with pride for our nation’s space scientists.
Student A: So many students from our class want to be astrophysicists and space scientists, the trip will be really helpful to them. I am sure the principal will readily agree to our proposal.
Student B: I have suggested the destination keeping all these things in mind.
Student A: Let’s go to our class and see how many of them are willing to go to ISRO. If we have a majority, only then we will proceed further.
Student B: Let’s go.
